Chevys Fresh Mex - Pleasanton, CA


Chevys Fresh Mex
5877 Owens Dr.
Pleasanton, CA 94588

This Chevys is located off I-580 and Hopyard, next to the Mercedes-Benz dealer. It's one of those restaurants that's one big open room, so it can seem quite noisy when it's busy. I like Chevys during happy hour (M-F, 3-7) when you can get delicious chicken flautas and steak fajita nachos appetizers...and of course margaritas for $3!

P.S. If you get a receipt that has a customer service feedback survey and call it in, you can get a free appetizer on your next visit! Check out the free appetizer sampler platter we got in the bottom pic...

Hot afternoon + getting our money out of Chase Bank (YUCK!) = Margarita celebration at Chevys during happy hour! This time wasn't so bad, as we had Erin serving us (love her!) but between the missing raspberries on our raspberry-strawberry margaritas (people at other tables had the raspberries...!!!) and the stale chips in the steak fajita nachos, I just can't give 'em any more than 3 stars.

At least I took more pics - the cantina, outdoor patio, $3 appetizers and margarita after margarita after margarita! :)

Chevys' happy hour is now from 3-7pm (M-F) and this evening I just came for margaritas. DH had one of their $3 fajita nachos happy hour appetizer specials and a peach margarita (both good, he says). I had a margarita on the rocks and a strawberry-raspberry margarita...which wasn't even full and I think they forgot to add the raspberry, since it tasted just like a regular strawberry margarita!

Our friends ordered some food as well and everything seemed to arrive at different times...but at least we were all drinking together. :) Oh well, now I know why I haven't missed this place even though we haven't been here in months...and darnit, we still have like 3 of those free appetizer coupons!



Happy Hour Margarita $3.00

First of all, did you know that this Chevys is the ONLY one in the entire USA that does NOT have Happy Hour (M-F, 3-7) $3 Drinks & Appetizers? Management says it's because they have such a "desirable" location...hah!

Anyway, last summer my husband and I were on a motorcycle ride and decide to stop in and give this place a try. We sat in the cantina and waited patiently for some water (it was a HOT summer day!) for the first 8-10 minutes. No one even came to our table, so disgusted, I went to the bar myself and got two glasses of water (the bartender got them for me right away and apologized for the slow service).

We finished our waters and still no server...but she finally showed up 15 minutes later when we had already decided to leave...and we're NEVER coming back!

Chevys Fresh Mex - Rocklin, CA

Hadn't been to a Chevys in years and decided to try this new one...then discovered HAPPY HOUR! My husband and I became regulars there until we moved away. I loved the Raspberry-Strawberry Margarita that was their seasonal special, but didn't care for the Mango Margarita that followed.

This location is the BEST as far as food quality, consistency and service. The food is always good here, at least in the Cantina during Happy Hour (we've never sat in the main dining room).

My $3 Happy Hour Favorites:

Margaritas - good for the most part...love the regular, strawberry, peach and the seasonal raspberry/strawberry flavor.

Steak Fajita Nachos - this is an AWESOME appetizer when they bring it out to you fresh (the melted cheese should still be hot)! The chicken version is also good and so is the chicken/steak combo...but the steak only version is the tastiest, imo. This one's great to share between 2 people, unless you're reeeeeeeally hungry!

Chicken Flautas - again, this is an AWESOME appetizer when they bring it to you fresh! The dipping jelly is delish and so is the sauce they drizzle over the flautas. Great for sharing...or not! :)

TIP #1: Go during happy hour (M-F, 3-7) and sit in the Cantina (the main dining room does not offer happy hour specials).

TIP #2: Sometimes your receipt will print with a "Complimentary Appetizer or Dessert" if you take a telephone survey. Wish they offered the survey online, but they don't. It's worth it, if you get the "short version" they only ask you for one overall rating, but if you get the "long version" it seems like a lot of questions, but only takes like 3-5 minutes to complete.
